When you inhale, you breathe in a mixture of Chloroform and Chlorine (in the scientific world, we call them the "2 Chl's") They are essential for life as we know it. Oxygen is not essential for life. That was a rumor put out there by air freshener companies that wanted to boost profits.
If you don't know, then look somewhere else because answers.com knows NOTHING.
But if you really need to know the answer, it's water and carbon dioxide.
Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide. (:
Inhaled air contains more oxygen than carbon dioxide and other gases. Exhaled air contains mostly carbon dioxide as the inhaled oxygen was used up to create energy. Waste carbon dioxide (and other unwanted gases) is then let out of the body and the cycle continues. :)Gas exchangeGas% in inhaled air% in exhaled airOxygen2116Carbon dioxide0.044Nitrogen7979
Exhaled air, which has a slightly higher amount of carbon dioxide, is heavier than inhaled air.
Breathing.
Exhaled air has more carbon dioxide and less oxygen than does inhaled air.
Inhaled air is richer in oxygen than exhaled air.
Inhaled air contains a greater volume of oxygen than carbon dioxide. Exhaled air is the opposite, since after the exchange of gases in the lungs the carbon dioxide in the blood is transferred into the lungs. Exhaled air contains a greater volume of carbon dioxide than oxygen. Also, there is more water vapour in exhaled air than inhaled air.
Inhaled air contains more oxygen than exhaled air because the cells have not yet used that oxyginated air.
Exhaled air will contain all of the gases in regular air, except that it will have higher percentages of carbon dioxide and lower percentages of oxygen. (It still will have oxygen, or CPR wouldn't work.) It will also have water vapor from our lungs. The main gas in inhaled and exhaled air is nitrogen. This is followed by oxygen, then carbon dioxide, then other gases. Yes, there is still more oxygen exhaled than carbon dioxide, but at a smaller percentage than was inhaled. Chances are that your teacher is looking for the gas, carbon dioxide, as your answer, since that is the product of cellular respiration that is disposed of in exhaled air, but it isn't the main component of exhaled air.
Exhaled air has less oxygen than inhaled air.Exhaled air has more carbon dioxide than inhaled air.Exhaled air is warmer that inhaled air.Maybe the first 2 are redundant, but I think that should work!
Exhaled air contains CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) and Inhaled air contains O2(Oxygen).
yes it is the inhaled air is 0.04 %, whereas, of the exhaled air is 4 % (100 times) more
